Specify Serial Ports Larger than COM9 #10

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

I think we need some improvement for addressing this case:

CreateFile("\\\\.\\COM10",...)

What's the problem?

I tried (only in Windows) without success to connect my pc to a device with 
serial
port larger than 9. It was enough to change the port below 10 to open the 
connection
with success.

I can confirm that COM ports above 9 work for me with the latest code, as long 
as it's prefixed as you did above: 
"\\\\.\\COM10"

Thank you for this confirmation.

I've also added code for this in setPortName() such that you can pass in 
"COM10" and have the appropriate 
characters prepended.  Marking as fixed.

Having the same issue I could fix it with the mentioned solution.
used:  qesp = new QextSerialPort( QString("\\\\.\\COM%1").arg(portNum) );
where portNum is a QString that is given.

This solution is not included in the latest downloadable version on sourceforge,
qextserialport-1.2win-alpha. I guess there are more improvements on this 
revision.
Can somebody then set up a qextserialport-1.2win-beta and upload it for 
download?

Cheers
Stefan
